The view is looking towards the gallery. The hall features a vaulted dome and the walls are in carved oak. There are a series of stained glass windows showing the Royal Arms and those of Lord Donegall and Lord Shaftesbury. When there is a function held in the hall a covering is out over the carpet as it would take at least a dozen men to roll each section and carry it out. The carpet is so fine a quality that it has an expected life of at least 50 years.
